Enormous pressure of citizens results from fierce competition and pursuing high-quality living standard. Being devoid of sense of security, which is triggered by unsound social security system, people are compelled to work overtime with exhaustion.

1. 模板句（后面的空就是需要填写的素材）

开篇：Not until I see this picture, do I realize the significance of ______.

现状： With the life pace accelerating in modern society, individuals in mounting numbers are inclined to ______. 

成因：Initially, ______ constitutes one of the primacy reasons why a host of citizens ______.

后果：If there is no compelling interference to curb this adverse trend, ______.

建议：From my perspective, ______ should shoulder the due responsibility to ______.

考研作文三大方面：

审题立意：身体一定要正确，看清楚作文图画提示中要表达的是什么主题，对于偏题作文，阅卷老师最多给5分。

文章框架：即文章模板，根据审题，了解作文类别，判断是观点类，负面现象类还是有争议现象类，然后选择框架进行写作，比如现状+成因+后果。

写作素材： 如果说“模板”是文章的骨架，“素材”就是文章的血肉；“模板”搭建文章的逻辑框架，“素材”让文章充实，言之有物，言之有理、只有框架没有内容，只会导致“低分模板文章”。

Looking at this thought-provoking picture symbolically depicted by the drawer, I do realize how significant it is to be optimistic. Two men perform extremely differently when seeing a bottle of water overturned on the ground, whose facial expressions imply that one is quite gloomy and another is rather composed and confident.

Common as it is at first glance, it is brimming with illumination after your serious pondering. In the age of kaleidoscope, it is inevitable for individuals to encounter twists and turns in their lives. No one will be an exception. Steven Jobs is a case in point. He became an idol of many youngsters and led his corporation to be outstanding when his suffering from cancer. But for optimism, he could never be such a high-achiever. Hence, it pays to be affirmative like the man with smile illustrated in the cartoon. Possessing this quality, one can not only achieve success more easily but also influence others positively. If the vitality of optimism cannot be realized properly and promptly, it may pose a potential menace to one’s sound personal growth.

Accordingly, it is high time that we fostered this state of mind deliberately. For one thing, schools and parents cannot shun their obligation to guide youngsters to be affirmative. For another, the public media should advocate the importance of optimism. Only with positive attitude towards life, can our promising future be well-guaranteed.
